Plant of the Month - Prayer Plant
Prayer Plant​​
The prayer plant (Maranta leuconeura) is one of the most distinguishable tropical houseplants thanks to its beautiful decorative foliage. It gets its common name from its leaves, which stay flat during the day and then fold up like praying hands at night.
A slow-growing plant, the prayer plant can eventually reach up to 1 foot in height indoors. They are popular as houseplants and can be planted and cared for indoors during any time of the year.
​
Those looking for a pet-safe plant will be happy to hear that prayer plants are considered non-toxic to both pets and humans. American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. "Prayer Plant." aspca.org. N.p., n.d. Web.
